On this page you will find a list of lesson plans and activities compiled by members of Peace Corps Ukraine's Environmental Working Group.

There is a grade level indicator next to each topic to help guide users to useful materials.

Unfortunately, at this time we are only able to list each lesson plan under a single heading, even though many are useful for a number of topics. We are working on uploading all files to the website and archiving them, then the process of cross-referencing them across different categories will begin.

Resources are listed in two categories: Lesson Plans and Activities/Worksheets. Lesson plans are fully realized classes which have a broad theme and have full write ups of objectives and procedures. Activities are smaller assignments that may not take up an entire class period and would be excellent additions or expansions to other lesson plans or themes. Worksheets are either stand alone activities or handouts to help illustrate a concept.
